[chimerax-users] Making a movie from a group in PDB file

[Aleksandar Donev]

Hi,

I am trying to create a simple animation of a demo molecular dynamics 
program

https://github.com/stochasticHydroTools/DemoMD

using either chimerax or chimera. The code creates a .pdb file that has 
multiple time frames in it, which show up in chimerax as a "group". How 
do I make chimera show the frames one by one and then make a movie out 
of that or save each frame as an image? I used to be able to do that in 
chimera but either the interface has changed or I have forgotten. I 
found lots of instructions about how to make movies by manipulating one 
data set (say rotating a molecule) but could not find anything about 
animation in time.

Thanks,

Aleks
